The Cork minor footballers are raising money for Marymount University Hospital and Hospice and Pieta House.

The Cork minor footballers are set to take on a 5km charity challenge in aid of Marymount University Hospital and Hospice and Pieta House today.

Each squad member and team mentor will run 5km within their 5km radius in accordance with Covid-19 regulations wearing their club colours.

The Cork minors are encouraging people to get involved throughout the county where they will be taking part in the event and support this worthwhile cause by donating through the fundraising link www.idonate.ie/countycharityrun.

"Those involved with the panel have seen how family members and relatives can be adversely affected by cancer, some have even witnessed first-hand the unbelievable work of Marymount," they said.

"The panel would encourage people to reach out to friends, family or teammates to get involved throughout Cork city and county where we will have players and team mentors taking part in every division. 

"Upload a picture of you in your club or county colours using the hashtag #countycharityrun after your completed your run/walk. Alternatively, you may wish to support us or a particular young person by donating through our fundraising link www.idonate.ie/countycharityrun."
